Are you looking to build skills to manage your depression or anxiety more effectively? Explore and adapt your core beliefs? Or engage in therapy to identify solutions to challenging issues? Do you struggle with intrusive thoughts, addictions or just feel like you don't fit in. Working with adults young and old I help people make the changes in their lives so that their approach to living is more in line with their goals and values. Change is hard, you don't have to do it alone.
Using a Humanistic, client-centered approach I provide a non-judgemental environment for you to explore your wants and needs as well as identify your goals, strengths and abilities. I use a combination of CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing and Solution Based Therapy skills adapting the therapeutic intervention to meet your needs.
Sessions can occur online through a secure virtual portal, in person in my South Barrie office, or I now offer walking sessions within the community or on backcountry trails. Prior to our first meeting I would suggest participating in a free 15 minute telephone consultation where we review your needs to ensure that my services are a good match.

Pulling from a variety of different schools and modalities I adapt each person's therapy to their personal needs. I understand that while journalling may be one person's saving grace, another might find regular written homework a nightmare. Everyone who is wanting to make a change is accepted here, and here you will find what works for you.
